A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    3. Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

The only reason I don't bookmark much, is because I'm actively hoarding 517 tabs.

I just moved to a new computer and cleaned up all my tabs.

You have Tabs Disease™ and the cure is bookmarks. Spend some time organizing your bookmarks. Set reminders to read or do things so you can close the ones you won't need in the future. This is the equivalent of living in a messy room surrounded by trash, dirty laundry, and clean but unfolded laundry. Gotta take some time away from living and playing to clean up.

That was me, but I found bookmarking to be better. Very rarely I've had Chrome crash and not be able to recover my tabs. With bookmarking, I don't need to worry about that. And I can pick up my browsing on a different device very easily with bookmarking, as my bookmarks are automatically synced via chrome.

luckily for me, Firefox is probably the most stable part of my system
